Jay,

If you're using mobile equipment from a vehicle, you are considered
to be in the mobile category, whether it's moving or not.  =


You are doing exactly what I have been doing for many years.  =

I am by myself doing both the driving and the operating.  While =

I do operate while moving, much of my operating is while =

stopped at the side of the road.  If you will only be operating on =

Sunday, you probably won't have a chance to win but please =

keep a good log and submit it later.  You could actually win one =

of the counties you operate from, and you could end up in third =

or fourth place, depending on how everyone does.  =


The rules state that you should sign your call /mobile.  You should
add the county you are in after that so people will know if they've =

worked you before.

Your operation is very welcome and we hope you have fun
and come back again for a full effort next year.

Hi All,

Since I won't be able to put in a full effort this year (Saturday is shot=
),
I =

will probably head into LAW, MER, and possibly CRA for a while on Sunday.=
  =


I won't be moving all the time since I'll be the only driver, so I can't =

claim mobile.
I will be using my mobile equipment, rig and screwdriver antenna so can't=
 =

claim /R.
I won't be in it to compete, only to activate these counties for everyone=
 =

else.

So my questions are these.  =


Do I have to keep a separate log for each county?
Should I sign /LAW, /MER, and /CRA similar to a rover?  -or- =

Should I not even bother keeping a log?  =

Are there any rules saying I Can't do this type of operation?
Will anyone even want these counties Sunday to make it worth my bother?

Does the PAQ not want anyone doing this type of op?  The rules seem to
avoid =

it.

This effort is for everyone else, so no flames, flares, or frags!
